"Swallow Paradise"
Johnny's on a sailboat called "the 7 seas"
And he's sailing to the islands of mysteries
And there's something in his eyes i can't define
A reflection of a different space and time
And jennifer's a shy girl, sitting by the window pane
Gazing at the writing of the falling rain
But she's not waiting for a breakthrough of the sun
She's just sitting there and watching, having fun
In swallow paradise, so long, bye bye...
...
Dosing in the shadows at the foot of a tree
And watching a swallow fly by
It's streaking past by chance than getting lost again
While everything is merging with the light
That shines on swallow paradise
So long, bye bye...
